Wake up, think fast, three weeks have passed.
We are changing.
No sleep, no gas
No excuses will pass these lips
Cause we're shapin' up to be all you wish you could have been
To write the hits and to turn their heads
And to open eyes (open your eyes) to a brand new season,
A brand new season.
So show me something we haven't heard yet,
But I'm not convinced and your heartless songs won't stick.
But I, I'll sing you something you won't forget
For the first time I know this is now who I am.
too old for this shit. by "this shit" i mean a livejournal and the academy is. i used to love them. they were one of my favorite bands. they got old. but i took a long break from them so i can listen every once in a while. i was just listening to down and out as well, and i never understood the sunglasses thing. all of a sudden i think i understand what they're talking about. it seems like the woman in the song has an abusive husband so she has to cover it up. that makes sense. originally i just thought it was some stupid line about wearing sunglasses at night. it's possible that it had no deeper meaning but in the context of the lyrics i think it makes more sense.
having a job has been the best thing for me. it keeps me busy. it's like i'm the opposite of who i was. happy, less broke, following a routine, waking up in the morning, going to sleep at night (i've gone to bed at 9:30 already), eating less (not that i care about fat content, it's just weird because i used to be obsessed with eating) and not being terrified of growing up. i just hope this lasts. i still don't know if this job will be permanent, but whatever. it's just strange, i've never felt this way. i've actually felt somewhat down the past few days, but i think i'm pmsing....although that'd be early to pms. even so, i'm overall doing well.
i've been listening to nickelback lately in the morning when i do my hair. also taylor swift of course, i don't know why it's impossible for me to get sick of her.
